i have just three question initially,
1) Will this support a 64-Bit windows vista *fingers crossed*
2) are you guys going to release the software early to allow us time to search around and get used to it?
3) preorders??

1) Not at first. We need to make sure the USB driver is working 100% before handing over the money to Microsoft, because after that every change to the USB driver incurrs a substantial cost to re-certify.
2) Probably, but it is going to be very close to the release date.
3) Up to the dealer.

You can always boot the laptop into 'use unsigned drivers' mode.

The ECU is tunable for intakes, exhausts, headers, cams, bigger injectors, K24 engines, turbo chargers and superchargers.
Nitrous - not at the moment. Launch - yes. For other features see the page under 'Civic Si/CRT features'.

First thank you guys for the Flashpro

I have a couple of questions for you guys
I have an 08 Si and also purchased a K20z3 that is beeing fully built by Endyn and the corresponding ECU and gauge cluster. My question to you is as i make the swap can i use the current ECU or do i have to use the donner ECU and will i have problems with the immobilizer? I know it's a bit ahead of time to talk about this but i am curious none the less.

Don't understand. If you have a 08 Si and are using a K20Z3 engine, what has been swapped? Why does the ECU need to be changed?

Press F8 when booting and select 'disable driver certification enforcement'. I believe that you can set an option to do this automatically every boot. Do a search for DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS.

1. So does that mean 1 unit Hondata flashpro can only work with one ecu or car only? Which mean i can't buy one set flashpro and used it together with a few of my buddies civics?

2. Does it have control over DBW?

3. Any option of immobilizer control?

4. 90 sec programming - does that mean it can't do real time tuning?

5. If the ECU had been reflashed by another maker, can Flashpro still work?

Thanks.
